Sapatos de BTT Northwave Striker preto tamanho 42

With a stiffness index of 10.0 and an XC 10 carbon composite sole, the Northwave Striker delivers uncompromising power transfer for cross-country and mountain biking. Every pedal stroke counts when the trail turns technical, and these shoes respond with race-ready efficiency.

Overview

The Striker is built around Northwave’s SLW3 dial closure, which offers micro-adjustable precision and a secure, glove-like fit. A single Velcro strap across the forefoot adds extra lockdown, while the perforated synthetic upper keeps air flowing on hot climbs. The Performance Regular footbed supports the arch without adding bulk, and TPU toe and heel reinforcements shrug off rock strikes and trail debris. At approximately 360 g per shoe (size 42), the Striker balances durability with a lightweight feel that won’t hold you back on long rides.
